Now that summer is here, I was hoping to find time to read a good book, and with your recommendation, I shall visit Amazon and see if I can track down this series, it does sound quite riveting. A great story can be told by a poor author, but any story told by a skilled author becomes a tale worth reading, and I highly value your opinion of this author. Hope your computer woes end soon! Hugs to you today dear friend!

Wow! This is quite a recommendation, Stephanie!Lately, I have read quite a lot about an EMP or solar flare destroying our power grid. What a scary proposition. I will pick up the book.Hope your computer settles down & that you are enjoying your summer, too!

This sounds very interesting, I will have to check these out and her blog. Always looking for new authors and great books to read. Hope you get your computer issues worked out soon! I've been having some storage issues on mine and trouble uploading pictures to blogger that I'm trying to work on. I've been behind in my blogging so trying to get back to it and visit everyone. Hope you have a wonderful day!

Hello Stephanie,This sounds like a good read, both books, you always do such a wonderful job with your reviews....so very sorry to hear about your computer. It's frustrating when this happens. Both my computer and laptop have been giving me trouble, as well as 2 sewing machines and now my phone....I feel your pain ;) Hope you are up to speed in no time! Enjoy the weekend my friend!xoLinda

Good morning Stephanie, I hope your computer gets fixed and you are able to get to blogging soon!Happy 5 years of blogging. I actually been blogging since 1999. At one time there were a bunch of ladies that drew country graphics and we would all blog together. I drew graphics back then as well. Now nearly all the ladies have stopped blogging but there are a few left. Happy Summer! have a Blessed by God Sunday! Hugs

So sorry to hear you're having computer problems...very frustrating. It's been way too long since I've stopped by to say "hi" as life has been busy once again. I hope you and your sweet family are doing well. Think of you often, Stephanie. Hugs!

Stephanie, I'm glad you have delightful books to keep you busy while you're waiting for your computer to be fixed. Sometimes the cover of the book and the title swoops you in even before reading the book. This picture with all the snow caught my eye right away. Maybe because it's 103 degrees today, and it's been a hot summer here.

Hang in there, dear Stephanie. I'm sure your computer will work like new once you get it again. And then, you can say hello to all of us who love you. : )

. . . . . .The Home. . . . . .

“I believe that a godly home is a foretaste of heaven. Our homes, imperfect as they are, must be a haven from the chaos outside. They should be a reflection of our eternal home, where troubled souls find peace, weary hearts find rest, hungry bodies find refreshment, lonely pilgrims find communion, and wounded spirits find compassion.” -Jani Ortlund
